WP4: Planning and control of intelligent operations

Aim: to develop new control concepts and models for

use in real time operational settings which supplement the traditional MRP logic;to enable automated and intelligent operations in

the factory and throughout the supply chain.

Examples of research challenges:• Lean and ICT• Managing complexity and uncertainty in production

control


sfinorman.no 21

WP5: Ideal Factory

Aim: to develop models for joint optimization of

technologically advanced production systems, control systems and high performance collaborative work organizations, particularly in the areas of high tech, partly automated manufacturing and in the project-type production of the engineering industry

Examples of research challenges:• Develop principles for management tasks and improve

the knowledge organization• Increase use of technology through robust flow-

oriented organization
